Location Data Collection and Sharing

High severity
Share 𝕏 Share in Share

Why it matters

Your location data is among the most sensitive personal information you generate — it can reveal your home, workplace, medical appointments, religious practices, and daily routines, and once shared with third parties it is difficult to control.

Consumer impact

T-Mobile collects extensive personal data including your real-time location, call and text metadata, device identifiers, financial information, and inferred behavioral profiles, and shares this data with advertising partners and affiliated companies for targeted marketing purposes. This means your daily movements, communication patterns, and financial behavior may be used to build a commercial profile about you without your active knowledge. You can opt out of data sharing for advertising purposes and submit data access or deletion requests by visiting t-mobile.com/privacy-center or calling 1-800-937-8997.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Opt Out of Arbitration
    Go to t-mobile.com/privacy-center and select 'Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.' Complete the form to opt out of location data sharing with advertising partners.

Applicable agencies

  • FTC
    The FTC has enforcement authority over unfair or deceptive sharing of sensitive consumer location data under FTC Act Section 5 and has pursued prior actions against companies in the location data supply chain.
